Jenaya’s Story
Meet Jenaya, a testament to the difference your support can make.
Jenaya was born in Adelaide, a member of the Nurungaa and Kaurna mobs. During her childhood, she faced challenging circumstances as her parents struggled with addiction. Consequently, she was placed into the foster care system. After attending school in Alice Springs and then moving to Melbourne to be with her mother, she faced further challenges when her mother experienced a relapse.
Jenaya was referred by Orange Door to wayss’ Emergency Youth Accommodation. Here, she received support to increase her life skills, build her confidence, and move towards living independently.
